Sure! Here’s the translated text in American English:

Recently, international media executives from countries like China, India, Kazakhstan, and Nepal gathered to participate in a dialogue coordinated by huanqiu.com. The event, titled “Mountains and Seas in Harmony: International Editors’ Roundtable,” focused on “Trends in Global Ocean Governance Amid Unprecedented Changes in a Century.”

During the roundtable, various challenges inherent to ocean governance were addressed. Among these, discussions included responses to climate change, ecological protection, and the need for multilateral cooperation. Meng Yuhong, deputy editor of the Global Times, emphasized China’s role as a responsible power in maritime cooperation, citing numerous projects driven by the Belt and Road Initiative.

Cao Yonggang, deputy editor of Qingdao Daily, highlighted the importance of principles such as “equality, consultation, co-governance, and shared benefits” for reforming the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. Meanwhile, Serik Korzhumbayev, editor-in-chief of Delovoy Kazakhstan, proposed that media outlets increase their commitment to raising environmental awareness regarding the marine ecological crisis by suggesting cross-border joint reporting.

Technological advancement played a prominent role in discussions, particularly the use of artificial intelligence and satellite remote sensing technologies in projects like the deep-water gas field “Shenhai-1,” which illustrates their application in natural resource development and ecological monitoring. Miwati Sitara Bolam, editor-in-chief of the Bombay Courier, advocated for greater cooperation in data sharing and the development of sustainable marine technologies.

Finally, participants agreed that ocean governance is essential within the framework of global climate governance. The media’s responsibility to promote public participation and urge the international community to effectively address these challenges was highlighted.
